The Heroes We Thought We Were
Unveiling Shadows: The Unexpected Truth Behind Our RolesLyrics
I made you the villain of my tragic tale
I portrayed you as the antagonist in my tragic story.
The reason all of my dreams never prevailed
You were the cause of my unfulfilled dreams.
But really I was just like you in the end
Despite appearances, I was similar to you in the end.
In another world, we could've been friends
In a different scenario, we could have been friends.
If you don't forgive me, that's more than fair
If you can't forgive me, it's understandable.
My judgment was clouded because I was scared
I misjudged you due to my fear.
You signified my failure, my incompetence
You symbolized my failure and incompetence.
But in another world, we could've been friends
In an alternate reality, we could have been friends.
I tried so hard to prove that we were different, but now history sees us both as the villains
I attempted to prove our differences, but history sees us both as villains.
It turns out that we were both one in the same
We were essentially the same, betraying each other for unattainable goals.
Betraying each other for something we'd never attain
We betrayed each other for something we could never achieve.
Didn't intend to cause so much pain
No intention to cause pain, but it happened.
But I'm here now
I acknowledge my present reality.
I would throw it all away
I'm willing to give up everything.
I am truly sorry, for what it's worth
I sincerely apologize for what it's worth.
Neither of us were the heroes that we thought we were
Neither of us lived up to the hero image we had.
I think that we would've been a good team
We could have been a formidable team.
If only things had worked out differently
If circumstances were different, things might have worked out.
But that's in the past
Regretfully, that's in the past.
The story's long over
The story has concluded.
The best thing that I can do is give you closure
The best I can do is provide closure.
I tried so hard to prove that we were different, but now history sees us both as the villains
Despite efforts to prove differences, history sees us both as villains.
It turns out that we were both one in the same
We were essentially the same, betraying each other for unattainable goals.
Betraying each other for something we'd never attain
We betrayed each other for something we could never achieve.
Didn't intend to cause so much pain
No intention to cause pain, but it happened.
But I'm here now
I acknowledge my present reality.
I would throw it all away
I'm willing to give up everything.
I am truly sorry, for what it's worth
I sincerely apologize for what it's worth.
Neither of us were the heroes that we thought we were
Neither of us lived up to the hero image we had.
Let's throw away all the pain that remains in this overgrown wreckage that we once called our legacy
Let's discard the lingering pain in this ruined legacy we once called our own.
And realistically, we can't change history, how I did certain things
We can't alter history, including the mistakes I made.
But there's no harm in trying
Despite impossibility, it's worth attempting.
Some scars won't fade away
Some wounds won't heal.
Some things you can't change
Certain things are unchangeable.
If you're still mad that's, that's okay
If you're still angry, that's acceptable.
I don't need you to like me
I don't need your approval or liking.
I'm sorry, for what it's worth
I apologize sincerely, for what it's worth.
Neither of us were the heroes that we thought we were
Neither of us lived up to the hero image we had.
And realistically, we can't change history
We can't alter history.
We can't change history
We can't change what has already happened.
Neither of us were the heroes that we thought we were
Neither of us lived up to the hero image we had.
